Originally titled Untitled 71, Alexander McQueen, this work departs from the contemplative tone of The Prelude to capture the kinetic urgency of backstage in motion. Through Black and White McQueen backstage motion ethereal photography, Sükan transforms blur and gestural movement into expressive language — arms, hands, and shifting bodies forming a charged choreography of preparation. The motion is not accidental but intentional, conveying the temporal pressure and collaborative intensity that precede the runway. Rather than freezing identity, the image renders it fluid, suspended within the fleeting chaos that defines McQueen’s pre-show atmosphere.
 
Sükan created the series as he was working for international magazines such as L'Uomo Vogue (Italy), A Magazine (France), Crash (France), Faces (Switzerland), and Muse Magazine (Italy) between 2004-2008. He captures the tension and the individuality that remain present at backstages before the models enter the catwalk where they lose their individuality becoming actors of consumerism or objects of art. Sükan momentarily steals these figures - who are preparing for other roles to create his own dialogue and mise-en-scène right before they appear on the actual stage.
Discover this captivating photography that seamlessly combines elements of fashion and figurative art, showcasing an innovative vision.
